Pheonix Rising?

I will be extremely surprised if anyone catches this post - I confess to having abandoned my posts for a year now.

Wow!

In this year, the changes have been great. Not great, as in swell, but great as in massive!

It took 4 years, but I am now officially single. My attorney said he'd never seen a case like mine and probably never would again. It took a very long time and there were a whole lot of crazy things that happened, but it was finally finished in March of this year. Whew!

Our beloved home and farm are gone. We are moving from one house sitting job to another. What a challenge!

I work a lot to provide for Michael and I, so our lifestyle has been altered considerably. Michael works a lot as well.

But I have learned a lot of things and am grateful for the chance to continue learning and seeing what God will be doing in our lives.

I have no photos at this time and I'm having a tough time with figuring out how to get things done when we don't quite know where any of our stuff is, or when we'll be in one place to the next, so I've not taken many photos lately.

But we are in a sweet little old house right now on 9 acres. I will write more about the challenges of this little spot, as well as the wonderful things about it later.

Michael is now almost 5 foot 11! LOL What a man he is, and such a blessing to me. He turned 16 a couple of weeks ago and is preparing to go get his license. I am looking forward to being able to sit in the passenger seat and do tasks during his driving time to and from town, which takes about 20 minutes each way.

I will see if I can get moving on the blog. I have so much to do, so much I am considering and praying about and need to focus on. It will be good to be able to share it with others, for encouragement, as well as for feedback.

Is anybody out there? LOL

Off to gel the dashing young man's hair before we are off to town for his "man class" and I find something with which to occupy myself.

The Milk and Egg Money Jar.

Faith is...

A hard-working country girl. A seeker of God. A mother of four. A single woman, making a life out of the lemons of abandonment and unfaithfulness. I consider all of life an adventure, and a chance to grow, laugh and love. I love learning new things all the time. Many people will tell you I can do anything. I can't. But I sure will try it and see for myself! I have a reputation of making anything fun. That's definitely true!
I hope you will join me in this adventure and be as inspired as I am to face life head-on, no matter what it throws at you. I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me.
